Looking for new posts…
Startups are naturally good at this; it is hard to keep a bigger company good at this and i think an underexplored space.

We want the OpenAI API to feature the best model at every price point and to be the best at every modality (text, code, image, video, etc).
And then we want you all to come up with great ideas and build them and to get to be happy users. The best ideas will come from you all.

Especially compared by per-task pricing, which is the metric that should matter, I don't think there is anything competitive anywhere in the market.
We want people to be able to use tons of AI; it is important to being able to explore this new renaissance in front of us.

GPT-6 Sol and Luna are big improvements on intelligence, alignment, work output, coding, computer use, and more over their 5.6-family predecessors.
They are also half the price per token, and even less per task!

OpenAI's superpower is the ability to swiftly assemble an empowered group of highly capable people to work on the most important and urgent thing at any point of time.
No one really cares for org lines. It's how we stay nimble, seize opportunities, and recover from mistakes.

@sama I don’t think anyone is against you guys (frontier labs) pacing yourself. Do whatever and take responsibility for incidents instead of bragging it. Just don’t try regulatory capture and force your will onto others. It’s that simple. 🤷♂️

There are two ways AI progress could go very badly and that we must avoid.
First, we could lose control of the future to AI. This is unacceptable; we are unapologetically on Team Humanity, and AI must always serve people. To ensure that, we need ways to ensure that alignment and

@sama The only solution is for tech CEOs to write more essays saying that the problems they created are someone else's problem to solve.

The world deserves confidence that American companies developing increasingly capable AI will act responsibly, especially as the trajectory of progress has steepened. Every frontier lab must deliver on this, and there is no reason any of us should come to work if we cannot.

@sama So the public gets screwed and the superior tech stays behind closed doors and available to a select few who control the world. You also get to charge whatever you want because nobody is allowed to sell a better product. This is bs anti-trust manipulation disguised as ethic

I agree with Dario that we need to pace the frontier. This has been a primary topic of discussions we've had at OpenAI in recent weeks.
Committing to having independent evaluators with employee-like access is a great idea, and we will do the same. We'll have more to share soon.
